I grabbed a copy and did some twisting about with it. 5 degrees is too much. It is tricky, but I have the sensation of her falling backwards in a subtle way and the window/mannikins falling forwards. I find it looks right when I rotate it clockwise by about 2 degrees ... the left edge of the "Feminine" sign is straight in line with the woman's right heel and the reflection of the curb in the window is level. All other lines are slightly at angle due to keystoning and your eyepoint. I think you were on the bicycle when you shot it, your eyepoint seems about 6" or so higher than normal. -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net
